Elegant Acquired tastes yet addictive

Overall a great vehicle I love it. I would however not recommend as a first car/starter car. for me my land rover is a bit of an oddball for enthusiast as they are not that common and can cost some money to repair if something were to happen. basically if your can afford to maintain it buy it if not dont
